No idea if Miggy and Kelly would have covered the difference though. It has which I find pretty annoying if that's the case after the fuck on last June.

Not that I rate him that high but no way Probably went into Gordon's contract extension Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingxlnc Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 What’s really annoying is that Man C and Chelsea operating in the same market as us, highly rated young gems that could develop into elite talents. So you can’t compete on that level given their huge revenue advantages not even mentioning their academies. At least Man U, Liverpool and the others tend to have a different strategy for more established players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the reported 70m bid? Things aren’t adding up. Not this again - ffs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToonScotman Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 We’ve got enough top names in the side just look at Bournemouth for example picking up cheap diamonds. Even 1 big signing and a few with top potential would appease us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shak Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Endrick and Guler both went to Madrid a couple of years too soon IMO. They're both immense talents but it's so hard to break into that Madrid team regularly and at that age playing every week is so beneficial. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scored two in his first few games for us, suggesting there was some under-the-radar goal machine in there like Kevin Nolan. Alas not to be. Still only 32.

Endrick looks like he doesn’t know the basics which is alarming for me. Can see him being a total dud, because he’s so small as well he’s never going to be a striker for any good European side, especially being so bad at the basics.

To be fair Vini Jr wasn't that good when he first started, they seem to buy these players with a long term strategy and persist with them until they make it.

Zero Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Vini Jr didn’t excel in those basics but he is an extremely determined type of learner. He finally made it after 2 seasons. Endrick doesn’t seems to be that determined. I doubt Real Madrid would let him go for cheap anyway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
